A real good thead, lets give coco the claps !

I will admit, Coco has a flair for producing "thought provoking" threads.
His record for responders is very good. What does that say, for us as an intelligent, knowledgable forum. Methinks not much. The first several posts, urge him to make a point. The rest are spent
calling him names, and correcting him. That's OK Coco, we all know where your coming from, (I think.) I eagerly await your next thread. Let me guess the title;
"If you couln play pool with any ded pool plyer, Who would that bee."

Just for that, you have to buy the first round in Chattanooga next weekend. I'll be thinking of you at the game this weekend. Since my son-in-law graduated from Florida, i have to pull for them on the outside.

See you next weekend.
 
It is always nice to speak to anyone who is a member of this forum, despite the fact that at times you will always read a post that one does not agree with - however if I had my druthers it woud have to be poolsnark as I do like his writing style and no one is immune to being criticised be they touring pro or industry promoter. If you want a candid opinion visit poolcuenews.com.

I've met too many to mention as well, and they have always been as cool as I expected. Of the ones I haven't met:

Jay Helfert (Hopefully at Shannon's Championship)
Jude Rosenstock
Fred Agnir (Hopefully at the DCC)
Fatboy (Hopefully at the DCC) - I saw him last year but we never met
BigSkyJake - My favorite AZer (along with Vette)
BVal - Seems like a good guy

Jude is alive and well. He no longer posts but still occasionally reads the forum.
 
I've met a lot of AZBers to date and look forward to meeting more in the future. It's always fun to meet up with AZBers but I really like meeting them in my home town or if I am just passing through another town when I have the time to get to know them.

If I meet an AZBer at a tournament, I have "tournament issues" on the brain and I try hard not to get too involved with anyone else except my personal issues. So, if you do say hello at one of the tournaments I attend, please don't take any appearance of indifference personally. It's a personal tournament thing.

I think the AZBers that I am most likely not going to meet anytime soon are the ones who hold my interest the most. BigSkyJake, Roy from Norway (I can see him wearing one of those big yellow raincoats on the old sardine cans), Doug Gordon, Colin Colenso and that hot head from England who wanted to play John Schmidt. :smile: I like (interesting) characters and all of these people are unique individuals. :D If I went over a list of people who I would like to meet it would take too much time to write them all down. Oh yeah, that reminds, me FATBOY would have to be on that list.

One Day,

JoeyA

Here's my response to this thread with same topic, about 1,5 years ago, started by jimmy-leggs:
http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=73030&highlight=meet

Since then I have met Jay and AZHousePro, I have talked and emailed with Deno a lot. Still haven't met NYCCueDude, but have thanked him many times on this forum... He is definitely one I would like to meet. BlackJack is still on my list.

John Schmidt
SJM
